Crew - Kirsty Sky Williams - Captain

Kirsty is an experienced Master of Yachts Unlimited for vessels up to 200 gross tonnes, having completed all of her OOW and Chief mate 3000 modules makes safety a top priority onboard. 

Kirsty has now been sharing the magic of sailing with guests since 1999.  Exploring oceans, islands and coast lines adding a touch of luxury, romance and adventure giving her the ability to create picturesque vacations for guests on oceans all around the world. She will read the weather and keep to calm anchorages for sleeping at night with a well-planned itinerary and stops along the way ensuring you get to see all there is on offer while relaxing on deck.

Regardless of experience on the water, Kirsty enjoys showing those on board the ropes and is good at keeping everyone comfortable, pointing out wildlife along the way, show you how to paddle board or hand you a cocktail at the exact right moment!
